Running Out Of Heroes
02:47

reamed i was still awake
and still laying face down holding on
remembered what someone said
if they're shootin' at you
you're doin' something right
Running out of heroes
running out of steam
there's a planewreck on the horizon
the glory days are gone
All that's left now and real
are the nine kinds of pain we're locked into
all we need is a deal
on some damage control and ejector-seats
Running out of heroes
running out of steam
there's a planewreck on the horizon
all sooty, amber and blue
running out of heroes
and running out of alternatives too

Imply Or Implode
03:11
|

Lay low but live large
hold down the fort
stay in charge
go slow but don’t show
sink into a thinktank with a glow
Go right or go wrong
all twists of fate are equally strong
just get by till get-go
and head out on another endless road
head on out
Imply or implode
either way we come in code
no rhyme or reason
stick it out for me one more season
stick it out

Wonders & Blunders
03:18
|
|||
|
Freon pumpin' in my veins
I know I'm losin' all I could've gained
one foot short of a full-on retreat
and all those blunders in my backseat
Cross the river dissappear into the night
no telling if i'm wrong or right
there's a splinter in my mind
now my thoughts are a different kind
And by the time I-40 takes me in to Amarillo
the lonely road is all I wanna know
In a stream of liquid stone
the matter is cut to the bone
what the road is offering me
is a flowing wonder of entity
And by the time I-40 takes me out of Amarillo
a lonely road is all i wanna know
'cause there is more to I-40 than to go through Amarillo
wonders and blunders
hand in hand they go

Ride On

Ride on ride on
pass the gates
in the setting sun
Ride on ride on
you favorite sifting son
Ride on ride out
leave behind
every shadow
every doubt
ride on out

Smells Like Rain
04:57
|
|||
|
It smells like rain again
although my premonition's like a train
running wild on rugged plains
while we try to maintain
Adrift at sea at night
with dreams deserted come what might
it makes no sense to fight
when no one is right
Cause there's always more to say
but less is being said each day
'it's hardly a reply and
it's not goodbye
Private Punic wars
dumb attacks and vague remorse
after all is said and done
are we still all for one
The bells are ringing true
praising those who start anew
and it's all that we can do
I hope you feel so too

Trans-frequencing
05:25
|
|||
|
Float upstream through last fall's fallen leaves
feel the breeze and see the surplus thieves
there are days when all your cells just know
you belong long ago
Drift along both Johnson and Monroe
submerged cathedrals in fierce undertow
surfin' that kinetic energy
like electrons captured casually
Way out there way out when
I'm sucked right in then kicked back out again
watch me trans-frequencing
I'm here and I'm then
Dream away and tap into the groove
walk the cloisters, see the pillars move
ancient arches on higher ground
this is my sonic lost and found
Way out there way out when
I'm sucked right in then kicked back out again
watch me trans-frequencing
I'm here and i'm then

Weary Talkin' Blues
01:53
|
|||
|
Found a way ‘round the red-light nerves
move like a bloodhound unaware of it's swerves
except jolts in my bones, itch under the skin
keeps me preoccupied with internal rearranging
Yeah this things got it in for me
days are shorter now than they used to be
So be cool, be funny, smack 'em down hard
with all due respect you just go the whole nine yards
'Cause this things got it in for me
days are shorter now than they used to be
still walking wounded, zombie in new shoes
undone and undead
same weary talking blues

Belle
03:05
|
|||
|
There are many ways for dreams to come true
a woman on route 6 could testify
lonesome on the lookout
watching folks and years roll by
I can't let go of what they told me
about her house, or what remained
after a truck ran through the wall one day
and she got a ride while she was looking the other way
Now she's the bell of alarm in traffic
calling out to you
in the smoke from whining tires
and the screaming silence that ensue

Don't Ask Me About Love
02:17
|
|||
|
I'm all in
Purple is the color that it turns
when you're feeling down in a black hole
and blue instead
will you ever get it up and
continue running a maze
certainly amaze those upon the beautiful gaze
I'm all in
Lots of coming and going downton too
lots of coming and going
around to find
Just don't ask me about love
don't know a thing about it
so just don't ask me about love
don't ask
I'm in too deep

Invisible
03:10

You should try if you think that you can't
and free yer deadload
see through the codes
Bring it out from the cool and the dark
to sweltering light and a clear sight
Find a passage that opens wide
sweep the shapes of dreamin' sattelites
Take it in all the unthinkable
unaccountable sways
dissolve in few days
just go and set inside the sun
be an invisible one
Find a passage that opens wide
sweep the shapes of dreamin' satellites

Overflow
02:56
|

Some say history is a nightmare from which we're trying to awake
that the past and the future are just different takes
and beginning to resemble Tommy Steele is reflecting how it feels
you know, some people get lucky while others get the raw deals
There are faces in the walls and a ghostly howling through the halls
waiting for the dust to settle I'm beginning to take vows
but it's just me and my thoughts knocking around this big old house
while the one-eyed jack is king in a world of blind men
There're people and cars outside my hotel window
midnight people I don't know
midnight cars in an endless flow
and as I slowly let the default setting go
I overflow
Pick us up
you'd think by now we'd know when to raise and when to call
but this game ain't at all the kind we had in mind
dreading the plottet course
trying to kick in some doors
